This is needed for qdevice to be able to process messages during
synchronization phase.

+.SH VIRTUAL SYNCHRONY
+Votequorum is only one service where communication with library is allowed during synchronization
+phase. This makes possible for quorum device to react to membership change and decide to vote or
+not without timing hazard, because corosync stands in synchronization phase until qdevice on all
+nodes vote or timeout expires.
+
+As a side effect, extended virtual synchrony is broken for votequorum service. This means, that
+messages sent during synchronization phase can be delivered sooner then messages sent right
+before sync phase began. This applies also for local messages.
